What is Oat Glucan?

Oats are primarily composed of chaff and endosperm, with the endosperm encased by pericarp, seed coat, aleurone layer, and sub-aleurone layer. Beta Glucan Oat Powder is predominantly found in the endosperm cell walls of oat kernels and accumulates in significant amounts in the subaleurone layer. Oat β-glucan is a polymer consisting of β-D-glucopyranose units linked by 30% β-(1→3) glycosidic bonds and 70% β-(1→4) glycosidic bonds. These branched, linear, and viscous polysaccharides have relative molecular masses ranging from 4.410^4 to 3.010^8.

Research and analysis have shown that high-purity β-glucan is neutral, white, and odorless. When dissolved in water, its solution becomes viscous. The molecular structure is stable, insoluble in organic solvents like ethanol and acetone, largely unaffected by external pH, and exhibits strong water-holding capacity.

β Oat Glucan in Cosmetics:

  1. Hydration and Moisturizing
    Oat glucan provides hydration and moisturizing effects. After appropriate application, it replenishes the skin's moisture needs and helps improve dry skin conditions.

  2. Repair Damaged Skin Barrier
    In cases where the skin is exposed to external stimuli and suffers damage, beta glucan oat powder can promote the skin's self-repair process and alleviate allergies or other discomforts.

  3. Inhibit Inflammatory Response
    When the skin is infected by bacteria, oat glucan can help suppress inflammatory responses, potentially aiding in the treatment of conditions like folliculitis.

Oat Glucan and Gut Health:

  1. Relieving Constipation
    Constipation is a common intestinal issue. Oat beta-glucan enhances the softness of feces and eases constipation by increasing water absorption in the intestines and improving gut flora structure, leading to smoother bowel movements.

  2. Improve Immunity
    Gut microorganisms are closely linked to the immune system. The prebiotic properties of oat beta-glucan enhance immune cell activity, bolstering the body's immunity and reducing the likelihood of infection and inflammation.

  3. Reduce the Risk of Chronic Diseases
    Imbalances in gut microbiota are associated with chronic diseases. By adjusting the flora structure, beta glucan oat powder may lower the risk of chronic conditions (e.g., diabetes, obesity) and contribute to overall health.
